Perfect last words to say

Hold on a second, what did you say?
Those words would never have encouraged me to stay.
On our way out, you did not encourage me to pray.
You never said a word though that day was my biggest day.
"Don't forget to empty the bin," is that all you could say?
I couldn't say a thing after all I obeyed.
Your busyness distracted your lifestyle.
Swamped in daily routines and lost the purpose.
Lost your focus and forgot your promise.
Lest my attention, you blamed your working shifts.
You were never there, so I wasn't there too.
When my heart stopped in the middle of that swimming pool.
Finaly you left work but it was too late, it was no longer me you pulled.

"I love you" would have been the perfect last words to say!

Little people

Everywhere we go, everywhere we live,
There are always little people in our lives,
These little people find it so hard to grow,
They always major on the minor and minor on the major,
They find it very hard to prioritize,
They forget that priorities is what really counts,
If you want to turn your life around completely,
you don't turn around with little thinking.

It is possible to win the battle and lose the war,
It is possible to miss the bigger picture while staring on the wall,
At times you think it's a grown up but you are with the child on that war,
Now is the perfect opportunity for you to paint the right picture on the wall
There is a time when you have to lose interest in middle of your argument,
Because you discover that you are arguing with the tall toddler,
You are wasting your punches on a toddler that looks taller,
Nobody told you that taller toddlers do not exist,
You must insist to resist fighting with toddlers in your life
The big idea used on the little person is a waste of punch
The big idea used on the absence of vision can not do much
Little thinking maybe entertaining but it's not revolutionary
Little thinking will make you stubborn and angry
Little mind set will not take you to the right direction
Little or low thinking will not take you to God's bigger plan for your life
Bigger plans lies on people who realize that God is bigger than little things
Bigger things are in line with God's bigger plans we haven't realized yet,
It is hard to have bigger plans with people who have little visions

God does big thinking and he is calling for us to do big thinking too
Even if we do our biggest thought, God still have a bigger thought than we do,
Our thought are still foolishness compared to his thoughts,
So you know what happens when we think small right?
God is getting upset if we are thinking small of our selves,
Do not be afraid of that little pain you are currently feeling
Pain is what God gives you with power to keep you from arrogance
When injustices occur we always look for logic
We question everything that happened as if it was magic
If you look for logic you will go crazy
When you've been down little low bad looks good
When you've been down little low you can't trust your own judgement
When you've been really lonely you don't evaluate people
When you've been really lonely you become so desperate for love and comfort
When you know that you are vulnerable you can't trust your own judgement
Sometime things become the same cycle of pain and then wet us like rain
Sometimes we think that the process is the purpose, while blind ourselves with the process.
When God is trying to bless us more we think that we have enough, because we have fallen inlove with the process and not the promise
If you've got a gift no matter where people put you, you'll never lose it
When you've got a gift, you've just got a gift
If the cage birds can sing, if vulnerable people can still sing how can I lose my song?

Everywhere we go, everywhere we live,
There are always little people in our lives,
These little people find it so hard to grow,
They always major on the minor and minor on the major,
They find it very hard to prioritize,
They forget that priorities is what really counts,
If you want to turn your life around completely,
you don't turn around with little thinking.

Little people

Ladies first

Let me give you a standing ovation cause you are the best
Let me give you recognition as you are the best from the rest
Let me give you my undivided attention and simply my best
Let me give you a reason enough why you better put that woman first

The world is so full and beautiful because of you
You bring life to the world and keep its joy too
You bring light because of your multiplied touch provided to you
You bring hope to our homes and things we can do
You bring light when all we see is darkness that's why we put you first

The crown in your head is well deserved
The Queen that you are, make us keen
Women are leaders and born managers that why we win
In every woman there is a man hidden in between
Take us where we've never been and show us things we've never seen
Take a stand and understand when I say obey and put ladies first

You act like a lady now and think like a lady too ok!?
There is no supremacy regarding to thinking that's what I say
You have every right to think like a woman to empower others and they'l obey
You empower others by simply being a fearfully and wonderfully made women
Just take a stand and understand that you deserve to be put first

There is something so unique and special about you
There is an extra 6th sense, so useful that you have within you
You can feel the calm before the storm with that extra sense within you
This makes more sense, why life is meaningless in your absence
You brighten the world with your smile that makes us happy everyday
Your brightness is bright enough for the whole world to shine
There is power in feminism, thanks God you are a feminist

From heaven to earth our ribs interlocked
From Eden to earth our faith intertwined and we felt shortness of breath
Let me give you a standing ovation cause you are the best
Let me give you recognition as you are the best from the rest
Let me give you my undivided attention and simply my best
Let me give you a reason enough why you better put that woman first

Happy women's month
